MBA/masters abroad in Europe

Graduate School Business School - MBA

<p>Hello All,
I did a quick search on this topic and couldn't find anything so here goes, I'll try to be as concise as I can be ;</p>

<p>Does anyone have any insight into the scenario of someone with a bachelors degree and a couple years work experience doing an MBA or a masters degree in Europe? I never got to do a full semester abroad in undergrad, and after taking the past two years to " figure out what I want to do", I've concluded that I'm really interested in trying to study and possibly work in Europe.</p>

<p>I've always considered myself to have an international perspective despite not studying abroad, I have had a lot of personal experiences abroad, probably more than the average person. I love traveling and learning about the world, different cultures, etc and I really think that a sort of "European adventure" would get my creativity going and help me figure out what direction I want to go in career-wise.</p>

<p>So I'm curious, has anyone done this/ know people who have?</p>

<p>Also, will studying for two years in a host country's institution qualify you for an EU work visa after graduating? I know this one may vary country to country.</p>

<p>Would a masters from a foreign school be a blip on my r</p>

<p>Not very sure about the visa thing but in case you are planning to visit any European country just for exploration, you might take a look at this. Found this incredible offer and thought i should share it with other people… Lufthansa is giving a 50% discount on two tickets booked for Europehttp://<a href=“http://www.lufthansa.com/in/en/50years-companion-offer?WT.mc_id=IN_onlad”>www.lufthansa.com/in/en/50years-companion-offer?WT.mc_id=IN_onlad</a></p>

<p>In terms of good business schools in Europe, look into the Financial Times’s list of top MBA programs. Their list is very Europe heavy and will give you some insight. </p>

<p>As for moving to Europe, I feel it’s feasible–as long as you’re from a top program. To get a work visa you’ll obviously need a job which is certainly easier to find if you’ve graduated from a top school in the country you’d like to live in. I’m in a similar boat but for undergrad (I’m studying in the UK and would like to find a job/move there permanently) and I know plenty of older international students from my university (Cambridge) who’ve found jobs.</p>
